The Savannah Tribune VOLUME XXVIII Negro Educators Held Convention Negro Educators Held Convention COLORED TEACHERS ASS'N. AT LITTLE ROCK Many Leading Educators Present—President Dogan Offered Solutions to Vexing Educational Problems—Association to Meet Here in Next Session With a big mass meeting in the First Baptist Church, the National Association of Teachers in colored schools brought its tenth annual session to a close on Sunday afternoon, August 3rd. The session opened Wednesday night July 30th, with the usual formalities of welcome and response, and with an able address by President M. W. Dogan. The pace set by President Dogan was kept up each evening of the convention, with R. R. Wright, H. T. Kealing and Hon. W. T. Vernon as the orators. PRESIDENT'S ANNUAL ADDRESS In a paper full of thought and suggestion, President M. W. Dogan, head of Wiley University, Marshall, Texas, offered solutions of many of the vexing educational problems of the day. Discussing the relations of literary and industrial subjects in the high schools, Dr. Dogan said: "The practice so common in many of substituting domestic science and manual training for certain high school studies calls for a most stubborn protest from those of us really interested in the educational advancement of our people," said he. "Domestic science and manual training are needed and should be taught in every well-regulated high school, for both educational and vocational purposes, but such should be supplemented and not substituted." PLEADS FOR COLLEGE. In reference to the Negro College, Dr. Dogan said; We plead for the real college. Just at this time we have too many schools bearing the name "college." We are too young as a race to properly equip and support all of these institutions in the rank of colleges. Some are doing work of such an inferior character as to make them educational jokes. "One great need of the Negro colleges and one which will remedy many of the ills complained of, is that of a productive endowment. "Not more than half a dozen of our long list of colleges have anything that approaches an adequate endowment. All our institutions of higher learning, with possibly two exceptions, are of a charitable character, and are therefore, at the mercy of their contributing sources, but the time has come when different means of getting at least a portion of the money necessary for current expenses should be inaugurated." Continuing the address the educator took up the "boy" problem. "The boy problem," he declared, "in American life is one of no small concern. The fact is, it is a serious problem. This is true as it relates to whites, certainly then it is true as it concerns us. This age, with its advancements and attending allurements, is sapping the strength of young manhood at a rate that causes grave alarm. Nearly every family appreciates the force of these statements. I wish more of the boys could be in induced to lead the simple life—the life that is near to nature, where a boy is content to eat simple food, wear simple clothing, appreciate simple diversions, and is ignorant of so much that blunts and destroys." Speaking of eugenics, Dr. Dogans said: "Environments plays a great part in disease as in other matters, for it is one of the master influences of the world. We all know the inyirment of the average Negro does not conduce to health. He of necessity lives in neglected sections of the city; the scale of wages paid him as a laborer will not admit of proper food and shelter and clothing and medical attention. Added to this is his ignorance when it comes to matters of hygiene and sanitation. Here the Negro teacher has a great job on hand. He must teach and Continued From Page One Tuskegee Institute Band which will appear at Savannah Theatre Monday Night in August 18. NEGRO FELLS RUNAWAY HORSE WITH FENCE RAIL He Hears Clattering Hoofs and Prevents Tragedy, Saving Minister and Wife. (Special to The N. Y. World.) Poughkeepsie, Aug. 4.—A fence rail wielded by a Negro saved the lives of the Rev. and Mrs. I. T. Stafford of Lagrangeville today in a thrilling runaway.

Its affairs are a ministered by men of excellent reputation among both the Lab and fraternal organizations of the The preacher and his wife were riding behind a spirited colt, which took fright at the raising of the wagon-top and started on a mad dash down a steep and rocky road. Amos Williams, a Negro farm hand, who was walking along the road, heard the clatter of the horse's hoofs on the rocky roadway. Running to a fence nearby he grabbed a rail, tore it from the fence and struck the mad horse on the head, knocking it to the ground. This saved the lives of the frightened occupants of the rig. Negro Porter A Hero. Baltimore, Aug. 5. About one-half of the guests at the burned Blue Mountain House were Baltimoreans. A score of these, clad in garments of all descriptions, returned to the city on a morning train. So swift was the progress of the flames that none of the party was able to save any of their jewelry and clothing. It is estimated that more than $15,000 worth of jewelry was lost. Wrappers, kimonos and such formed the wearing apparel of most of the women who arrived here today. Hair was loosely knotted on their heads and in many cases straggling down their backs. To the courage and cool headedness of Frank Thomas, a Negro porter of the hotel, many of the guests owe their escape from the burning building, according to Arthur Mack of Newbern, N.C., one of the party arriving here this morning, "This man," said Mr. Mack, 'although half suffocated by the smoke, went from door to door awakening the guests. Then gathering them together he would call 'this way out,' and led them through a rear exit to safety." Thomas, it was declared, did not leave the building until he was assured that every one was out. Some of those who were hurried from their rooms were old and feeble, and ill. Most of these were either accompanied by nurses or relatives. Many children were among the guests. These were taken out of their beds and gotten outside before they could realize their peril. Mme. Florence Williams Moves Beauty Parlors. Mme. Florence E. Williams, who has for the past year conducted her hair dressing establishment and beauty parlors at 719 West Broad street, has moved her business to 530 Anderson street, east, where she will be pleased to serve her many patrons. Mme. Williams is a graduate of Prof. Rohrer's school, New York, and is one of the most experienced hair culturists in the city. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1913 Tuskegee Band Will Give Street Parade MAJORITY OF TICKETS ON SALE ALREADY TAKEN Concert te be One of the Most Entertaining Ever Given Here—Largest Aggregation of Negro Musicians to Visit the City—Only Eight Box Seats Left on Sale. The concert which will be given at the Savannah Theatre on the night of the 18th of this month by the Tuskegee Institute Band and Glee Club is attracting wider interest among the Negroes of the city than any entertainment which they have been interested in for several years. The sale of tickets for the concert has been very large and there are but few of the desirable seats in the theater left. That the concert will be one of the biggest social affairs in the history of the city is demonstrated by the fact that all of the boxes, with the exception of one, have been taken and will be occupied by some of the leading Negroes of the city. The appearance of the band in the cities of the north and middle west has brought out thousands of people and their concerts have been very highly spoken of by the papers in all the cities where it has played. The members of the band are taken direct from the student body and they represent many of the states of the country and several foreign countries. Not only does this aggregation of forty-five musicians render band music but they also have among them one of the best Negro-glee club that has ever traveled the country. They are making a tour of the country in a special car and are in charge of Band Master H. G. Smith, one of the most widely known Negro musical directors in the country. The local Negro Business League, under whose auspices the band is to appear here, has advertised the affair very extensively and is appealing to their Negro business houses of the city to take space in the attractive program which is being gotten up. In order that some of the local charitable institutions might be benefited, a part of the proceeds from the concert will go to Charity Hospital and the Old Folks' Home, two of the most worthy institutions in the city. On the morning of the concert the band will give a street parade and will also give complimentary concerts in front of the newspaper offices of the city. By this means the attention of many will be attracted to the evening's concert at the theatre, who otherwise would not know of it. In order that the many white friends of the institution may have an opportunity of hearing the band special reservations have been made for them and many of them have already signified a desire to be present. Tickets for the concert are on sale at several of the leading Negro business houses of the city. Campaign For Funds For Old Folks On NEARLY THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS RAISED Hope to Raise About Two Thousand Dollars to Build on Land Owned in East Savannah—Public Appealed to for Assistance—Those Who Have Donated For the past four or five months a strenuous effort has been made by the trustees of the Old Folks and Orphans' Home to raise money for the erection of a building on the land which the institution owns in East Savannah. Up to date there has been raised nearly three hundred dollars, of this amount the largest sum, $56.35, has been donated through the Second Baptist church, whose pastor, by the way, is chairman of the board of trustees of the institution The next largest donation, $29.60, came from the Negro Business and Professional Men's Association, a portion of the receipts accruing from the school children's races last May. In all the number of donors to the cause have been thirty four, among whom are many of the most representative Negroes of the city. The interest taken in the movement to care for the orphans and friendless old folks of the city has by no means been as general as the leaders in project to erect a building for them have hoped for, but such as it has been has encouraged the leaders to double their efforts for success. The land which the institution owns in East Savannah is in a very desirable location. It is about 130 by 110 feet. There is already an old wooden structure on it, but it is in too delapidated condition to make it anything like tentable. Several years ago this building housed about a dozen old folks, but after a few years use it had to be vacated on account of its poor condition. The board of trustees are hoping to raise no less than $2000 with which to erect a frame building to replace the old one, and it is anticipated that with the new building in their possession at least a large portion of the orphans and old folks can be cared for. A special appeal for assistance has been made by the trustees to all of the churches in the city and several of them have responded, though hardly a sufficient number to say that the majority of them realize the importance of such a worthy cause. Individual donations have also been solicited and from this source about $150 has been raised. The board of trustees of the institution will hold a public meeting on the third Wednesday night in this month at Mt. Tabor Baptist church, Henry and East Broad streets, Rev. N. H. Whitmire, pastor. It is earnestly desired that all persons interested in the movement to care for the orphans and old folks of the city Union Stock Company Make Progress. The Union Stock Company was incorporated in May, 1912, with a capital of five thousand ($500.00) dollars. The Company is to deal exclusively in real estate and its success so far points to an excellent future. Its affairs are administered by men of excellent reputation among both the Labor and fraternal organizations of the city. Since the incorporation of the company, over a thousand ($1,000) dollars of the capital stock have actually been paid in and it has disposed of a portion of its holdings at a profit of 112%. The Union Stock Company is now offering to the public a chance to share in its profits and at the same time to greatly enlarge the scope of its business. It is expected in a very short time to have the entire capital paid in. Any information whatever relative to the management of the company will be cheerfully furnished by any of the directors and at the office of the Secretary in The Savannah Tribune building. The following are the officers and directors: President, J. A. Ury; Vice-President, E. L. Martin; Secretary, Chas. McDowell; Treasurer, Stephen Manes, Sr.: Auditing Committee, Stephen Manes, Jr. Thos. Hunter and P. A. J. McDowell; Chaplain, P. E. Seabrook. P. F. Frederick, J. A. Mills, W. M. Stovall, J. P.

Augustine Reid, preached a powerful sermon from Sam. 2:10, subject, "Honoring God." The subject was well handled. The public is cordially invited to attend the services. Tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 p. m., will be the holy communion and the reception of new members. will be present at this meeting and will give their assistance in raising the desired amount of money, with which to erect the building in East Savannah.

Odd Fellows Here Next Week CLOSE FIGHT FOR GRAND MASTER ANTICIPATED Other Grand Officers Also To Have Opposition-Largest Crowd In Years Expected Present Household Officers Likely to be Retained-Street Parade to be very Inspiring. The district grand lodge No. 18, of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of the state will hold its sessions in this city next week, beginning Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock with public exercises at St. Philip A. M. E. church, Charles and West Broad streets. $ ^{o} $ The attendance at the convention gives promise of being the largest in the history of the order and no less than two thousand delegates are looked for by those who have charge of the arrangements. In addition to the delegates there will probably be about a thousand friends of the order throughout the state who will be in the city, The committee which has had charge of finding quarters for this large delegation has had a tremendous task to perform, but adequate provision has been made for every one who has applied for quarters. That the fight for grand lodge offices will be a very spirited one is the general opinion and much campaigning has been done by the various candidates and their friends. There seems to be much unrest and dissatisfaction among the members of the order on account of the way things in general have been going and many startling disclosures will be made at the coming session, it is alleged. It is stated that all of the present grand officers will have opposition. Grand Master B. S. Ingram will be opposed by W. L. Hughes of Dublin and a hot fight for the place is anticipated. For position of grand treasurer, which is now held by Mr. Wm. Driskell of Atlanta, Dr. R. H. Cobb of Columbus, has been endorsed by the Deputies' Institute, and it is stated will have strong opposition. It is not publicly known what developements will center around position of grand secretary, now held by R. J. Davis of Atlanta. Much criticism has been published concerning his conduct of office and no doubt this will be brought to the attention of the grand lodge. The lodges will hold their business sessions in the Masonic Temple, Gwinnett street, west. The street parade will take place on Tuesday afternoon and will be one of the largest displays ever held in this city. The parade will form at Gwinnett and West Broad streets and proceed through the principal streets of the city. It will be headed by the Patriarchies J. L. Binyard will be grand marshall. Immediately after the parade there will be a grand prize drill at the baseball park. The official week's program will be seen on page f our. Wedding Announcement Mr. Anna L. Tweedy wishes to announce the marriage of her daughter, Marie Laurenza to Mr. Arlington Payton. The ceremony was performed in New York City, by Rev. Father McCarthy, June 11th, 1913. Miss Percy May Tweedy was her sister's attendant and Chas. S. Tweedy was best man. A few intimate friends witnessed the ceremony. Mr. Payton is a graduate of Claflin University, and is very popular, and Miss Marie Laurenza was the most popular young girl of her set in Savannah, and is also a popular trained nurse. She is from one of the best known families of Augusta, Ga. The couple will spend the summer at Sheepshead Bay, L. I., and Saratoga, N. Y., but will make their home in New York City, after September 1st. The many friends wish them much success and happiness.—Please copy Georgia Baptist. "A Time to Keep Silent, and a Time to Speak." Canticles 3:7. The Blessings of Quietness A sermon by the Venerable Henry L. Philips, Archdeacon, Diocese of Pennsylvania There is a time for all things, says the writer of the book of Canticles. There is a time to keep silence and a time to speak. Whittier says: "Drop thy still due of quietness Till all our strivings cease; Take from our souls the strain and stress And let our ordered lives confess The beauty of thy peace." Quintessence, like mercy, is twice blessed; it blesseth him that is quiet, and it blesseth a man's friends and neighbors. Talk is good in its way and in its time and place "There is a time to speak," but there is also "a time to be silent," and in silence many of life's sweetest benedictions come. An Italian provotb says "He that speaks doth sow; he that holds his peace doth reap." A German provotb says "speech is silvern, silence is golden; speech is human, silence is divine." The Bible speaks very much of power and quietness. Of Christ it was said: "He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the streets." As we read the Gospels we see that our Lord's whole life was a fulfilment of this prophecy. He made no noise in the world. He never talked for talk's sake. He often forbade those on whom he had conferred a blessing to say anything about it. He did His work without excitement, without parade, without confusion. He wrought as the light works -silently, yet persuasively and with resistless energy. Quietness is urged on His followers. "Study to be quiet," writes an apostle. He exhorts bushy bodies to work with quietness. Prayers are to be made for rulers that they may lead a quiet and peaceable life. Another apostle, writing to Christian women, speaks of their true adornment as being the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit which is in the sight of God a great price. Solomon rates quietness in a home as far above the best luxuries. "Better is a dry morsel and quietness therewith than a house full of feasting and strife." A prophet declares its secret and power in these words: "In quietness, and confidence shall be your strength." Nothing can be more important in every one's life than to know when to speak and when to be quiet. I wish boys and girls and young people would learn to make a proper use of their tongue. There is nothing more tiresome and annoying than to hear a tongue, usually a woman's, rushing along everlastingly making a noise like shallow water running over stones. Talk, talk, talk, and when we ask what has been said, the answer is "nothing" Would it not have been better if the time had been spent in saying a few words that had a thought in them—a thought worth remembering—or in quiet meditation? We complain of not having time and yet how we do waste our time! Carlisle says: "Speak not at all in anywise, till you have some what to speak. Care not for the reward or your speaking, but simply with individual mind for the truth of your speaking. Better be silent, better be dumb than to be among those of whom Shakespeare says: "She speaks poignards and every word stabs." We should be quiet to ward God. The expression, "Rest in the Lord" in one of the Psalms, is in the margin "Be-silent to the Lord." We are not to speak back to God when he speaks to us. We are not to reason with Him or dispute with Him because He does everything in the best possible way, but we are to bow in silence and loving acquiescence before Him. "Be still and know that I am God." It is in those Providences that cut sorely into our lives and require sacrifice and loss on our part that we are specially called to this duty of silence. There is a pathetic illustration of silence to God in the case of Aaron when his sons had offered strange fire and died before the Lord. You read, "And Aaron held his peace before the Lord." He made no natural human outcry. He accepted the terrible penalty as unquestionably just and bowed in the acquiescence of faith. Such an attitude of silence can only come from a living faith that actually believes, not simply says it, that God is love, and that this universal love permeates the whole world and is working for the best good of every individual in it. That is the faith that makes one stand firm on the rock and laugh at the raging of the storm and the roars of the angry waves. Have you such faith? This silence toward God should be our attitude in all times of trial when his ways with us are bitter and painful. Why should we complain at anything our Father may do, when we know that love is behind all that He does? His will is always best for us, whatever sacrifice or suffering it may cost. "Thou layest thy hand on the fluttering heart and sayest, 'Be still!' The silence and shadow are only a part of Thy sweet will; Thy presence is with me, and Where Thou art I fear no ill." I must put in a caveat just here. If we choose to use our tongues unwisely having them running like a Niagara, night and day saying, harmful things, and our words get us into trouble we are not to lay the blame at God's door. We do things foolishly and even wickedly and then with a look of surprise ask: "Why does God do thus and so to me?" What! Put your hand in the fire and say why does God allow it to affect you? Beware how you blame God when you ought to be blaming yourself. The Bible says; "By thy words thou shall be judged" and the judgment is always going on Scorft says, "She sits tormenting every guest, Nor gives her tongue one moment's rest, In phrases battered, stale and trite Which modern ladies call polite." Gay says: "My tongue within my lips I rein For who talks much, must talk in vain." Then we should train ourselves also to be quiet toward men. There are times when we should speak. Times when words are mighty and full of blessing. Universal dumbness would be a boon to the world, even though there are times when one could wish some people were dumb. Among the most beneficent of God's gifts to us is the power of speech and we are to us our tongues. There are some people who are altogether too quiet in certain directions and toward certain things. There are corruptions in our city that to be quiet concerning them is to help them on. Silence gives consent. The power of good words at home should always be recognized. According to Milton, "Eve kept silence in Eden to hear her husband talk," said a gentleman to a lady, adding in a melancholy tone, "Alas! there have been no Eves since." "Because," quietly retorted the lady, "there have been no husbands worth listening to." Perhaps the retort was just. There is a time to speak. Franklin wisely said: "As we must give account for every idle word, so must we for every idle silence." Silence may be sadly overdone. There are other silences to be deplored. People keep in their hearts unspoken the kindly words they might utter, ought to utter, in the ears of the weary, the soul hungry and the sorrowful about them. The ministry of good words is one of wondrous power, yet many of us are wretched misers with our gold and silver power of speech. Is any miserliness so mean. People about us oftener need kind words than they need money. You may allow hearts to starve around you though you have abundance with which to feed them. One who attends the funeral of an ordinary man and listens to what his neighbors have to say about him, will hear enough kind words spoken to have brightened many years of his life. But how was it when the man was living, toiling and struggling among these very people? Were they then so faithful with their grateful, appreciative words? They were too quiet toward him. Silence was overdone. Quietness is carried too far when it makes us disloyal to hearts that crave our love and sympathy. But there is a quietness towards others that all should cultivate. There are many words written and spoken. There are people who seem to exercise no restraint whatever on their speech. They allow every passing thought or feeling to take form in words. They never think what the effect of their words will be, how they will fly like arrows shot by some careless marksman and will pierce hearts they were never meant to hurt. Thus friendships are broken and injuries inflicted which can never be repaired. Careless words are forever making grief and sorrow in tender spirits. We pity the dumb whom we sometimes meet. Dumbness is more blessed by far than speech if all we can do with our marvelous gift is to utter bitter, angry, abusive or sharp cutting words. "I heedlessly opened the cage And suffered my bird to go free, And though I besought it with tears to return. tears to return, It never came back to me, It rests in the wild woods and heeds Rose Terry Cooke in one of her poems, shows in a very strong phrase the irreparableness of the harm done or the hurt given by unkind words, "Flowers fade but there will be more flowers another year, just as sweet ones, too, as those that are gone Snow melts and disappears, but it will snow again. The crystals of dew on leaf or grassblade vanish when the sun rises, but tomorrow morning there will be other dew drops as brilliant as those which are lost. But words once uttered can never be said ever to be changed, nor can they ever be gotten back Never shall thy spoken words Bo again unsaid, unheard, Well its work the utterance wrought— Woe or weal—whate'er it brought Once for all the rure is read, Once for all the judgment said. Through it pierced a poisoned spear, Through the soul thou holdest dear Though it quiver, fierce and deep Through some stainless spirits sleep Speak, but speak kind words. Be silent when speech would do harm. Speech is good but oftentimes silence is better. He who has conquered his tongue is greater than the greatest warrier this earth has seen. "Lord, speak to me that I may speak, In living echoes of Thy tone." St. Phillip Dotz On account of the inclement weather on last Sunday the attendance at service was quite small Rev.

Foot Trouble Cured Foot trouble caused It is an absolute fact that most foot trouble is caused by overwork or strains on the muscles and ligaments of the foot that support the arch, carrying the weight of the body. These ligaments, muscles and tendons become tired and relaxed under the enormous work, allowing the archi to lower cause tired aching feet, weak ankles, rheumatism, flat foot, cramped toes, bunions, callouses etc. Dr. Johnson's Foot Easer will relieve them at once. 603 West Park Avenue. SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson VI.—Third Quarter, For Aug. 10, 1913. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Ex. xii, 21-31. Memory Veres, 26, 27—Golden Text, Matt. xx, 28—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The deliverance of Israel from Egypt at the time of the first passover marked the beginning of their national history, according to verse 2. The fulfillment of the passover which is yet future will mark the beginning of their becoming a righteous nation when they have been gathered from all nations and have seen their Messiah in coming His glory (Luke xxil, 15, 16; Isa. xl, 11, 12; Ix, 13, 19-22). Their deliverance from Egypt was wholly the work of the Lord (xill, 3), and so shall be their restoration and conversion, at the second coming of Christ. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do it (Isa. ix, 6, 7). The first passover was in connection with the last of the ten judgments on Pharaoh and his people, the death of the firstborn in every house; the last passover will be in connection with the judgment upon the nations (Joel ill, 1, 2; Leph. ill, 8, 9; Matt. xxv, 31, 32). The safety of the firstborn of Israel on that dread night in Egypt depended upon the blood on the doorposts of their houses, for the Lord had said, "When I see the blood I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you" (verse 13). There is no salvation revealed in all the word of God except by the blood of the Lamb, Christ our passover sacrificed for us (I Cor. v, 7). Not money nor morality, not baptism nor church membership, not the sacrifice of Christ and something else, but the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish, that alone gives safety (I Pet. 1, 18, 19; Lev. xvll. 11; Heb. 1x, 22; Eph. 1, 6, 7; Rev. 1, 5, 6; v, 9, 10). The household might be too little for the lamb, and in that case his next neighbor was to share with him, and that suggests a good answer to the question, Who is my neighbor? Why not any one in the wido world with whom I can share the Lamb of God—that is, any one to whom I can make known the gift of God? (Verse 4.) The lamb was never too little for the household, for there is a sufficiency for all in Christ Jesus. That the lamb was kept four days (verses 3, 6) is to me suggestive of the fact that the Lamb of God was set apart before the foundation of the world, but was not slain until 4,000 years had passed, and a thousand years are with the Lord as one day (I Pet. 1, 20; II Pet. ill. 8). The blood to be of any benefit had to be sprinkled on the doorposts—that is, appled. The mere knowledge that Christ died for sinners will avail nothing unless I believe that He died for me and receive Him as my own personal Saviour. As Israel had no national existence until that night, so the sinner has no life until he comes under the shelter of the previous blood, for "He that hath the Son of God hath life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life" (I John v, 12). The lamb being slain and the blood sprinkled, no one was to go out of the house, until the morning (verse 22). The blood is our safety all the way along until the morning of His return, and then we shall be like Him and be forever with Him. Under that blood there was no death, whether the first-born was quiet and restful because of the word of God concerning his safety or whether nervous and restless because he could not feel safe. They were to eat the lamb with unleavened bread and bitter herbs, suggestive of no evil tolerated (for leaven is always something corrupt), and our sufferings with Him, for all who 'will live godly in Christ Jesus: shall suffer persecution. Their eating the lamb or, not eating it did not affect their safety, but suggests fellowship. Our Lord said, "He that eateth Me, even he shall live by Me," and He also said, "I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly" (John vi, 57; x, 10). Under the blood there was life, but eating the lamb indicates more than life. Many seem content merely to have life, but have little appetite for the Lamb, shrinking from suffering with Him and not careful to put away all leaven, willing rather to be conformed to this present evil world than transfigured by the renewing of their minds (Rom. xil, 1, 2). Lolins girded, shoes on, staff in hand, suggest the pilgrim ready for the journey (verse 11), and the Split through Peter connects it with readiness for the coming of Jesus Christ, as also does our Lord Himself in these words: "Let your loins be girded about and your lights burning and ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord when he will return from the wedding" (I Pet. 1, 13; Luke xil, 35, 36). Where there was no blood on the doorposts that night there was death in every house from the palace of the king to the lowest in the land (verses 29, 30), and so it is now. All without respect to their standing before men, are either in Christ or not, and only in Christ is there safety. See in verses 40, 41, the fulfillment of the word of the Lord to Ahram concerning the time of the sojourn of his descendants in the strange land (Gen. xv. 13). It should be a comfort and a resf to all who are in Christ that all things have been clear to Him from the beginning and that He worketh all things according to the counsel of His own will.

For the Tea Table. A woman who has lived abroad foc many years where they make a cup of tea as carefully as they make a cake says the lemon should never be cut until it is to be used. Have a small. sharp knife on the table and cut eack slice as desired, never cutting a dish- ful of lemons to stand for an hour or even a few minutes. A rood tidbit for the tea table can be made with biscuit and marmalade. Break each piece in two, making thus two squares; put on a row of Neuf- ehatel cheese nround the edge and a drop of orange or tangerine marmalade in the center. This makes just the right sized wafer and has a Insctous favor. Instead of lemon in the tea try, a maraschino cherry and a teaspoonful of the wine that comes with them.

Without attempting in the least to pose as the official ethical guide or dispenser of a moral code for ‘our people, The Tribune feels it to be its-duty to caution our peo- ple whenever any breach of con- duct or infraction of the moral law and their past requires it. At this time, we wish to call the attention of our readers to the practice, long prevalent among some of the parents, of carrying their children of tender and un- managable age to places of public worship and amusement where too often tho services or exercises are greatly disturbed by their continued wailings and screams. Whenever a person goes toa place of amusement such as 2 concert, hall or moving picture theatre, he does so expecting to be able to enjoy the services or exercises, whatover they may be, undis- turbed. his is his right, and it is the duty of others to honor and respect this right. A crying baby or an unruly child to the right or Jeft of him or in front or behind him, although it may be under the guardianship of a fond parent who may bend every nerve orenergy of his to quell the dis- turbance, the presence for which he is directly responsible, inno cently take3 away this right of the individual to enjoy the ser- vices or exercises which he at- tends unmolested or undisturbed. ‘too often, exercises that would be quite interesting and enlight- ening are made otherwise by the presence of one or more babies whose cries so charge and sur- charge the entire surrounding that nothing can be heard or un- dozstood to satisfaction. The condition ahove described was noticeably true at one of the large funerals which took place quite recently among us. At this funeral scveral young ones in the arms of their parents so disturbed the exercises uutil it was with great diflicwty the speakers were able to make themselves heard. In our opinion, such a condition is not necessary and hence should not be brought about, Person- ally, wo believe in littio ones. We believe in parenthoed and parental care exercised fur the pleasure und profit of the little ones: We believe that the little ones should bave their outings of health and pleasure often and regularly. However, we do not believe that these outings of health and pléasure for the little ones should be so arranged as_to inter- fere with the rights of individ- uals. Parents of little ones ought to realive that the responsibility which rests upon them as parents requires that they make certain sacrilices and forego certain pleasures. They should not ex- pect to attend public gatherings or other amusements with their cares until they are positive that thoir little ones are of sufficient age and understanding as to war- rant their keeping reasonably quiet during the exercises that may be chad. This isa duty which they owo to their fellowmen. The Tribune sincerely trusts that the parents of our little ones will take cognizance of this and sec to it that so far asthey are concerned no occasion will be brought about for their censure or condemnation for allowing their little ones to make themselves innocently, but in reality, a public disturber. Slowly but surely the race is again coring into its own in va- rious parts of the country and in waiters. The colored” man was| then thought to make the best, dining room servant obtainable. Soon a wail against the colored man was sept up from various quarters and it was not long be- fore the Swede, German, the Tfalian aod the Frenchman dis- placed him.as a dinning room domestic. The foreigners were given along try out in some of our best _hostelries. However, it was not long before it was found out, to the dismay and regret of the hotel owners, that the Negro, in point or service, was by far the best hotel man to be found anywhere. Information comes to us now, that in some of our lead- ing cities like St. Louis, Chicago and New York, thd owners of the first class hotels.‘are returning with a rush to the colored waiters beseeching and imploring them to return to their former places of employment. And not only in the hotels do we note this _whole- sale return to the colored man, but on the diners of our _leading railroads as well.- The- Japanese who were thought to be world- famed cooks and who were em- ployed by some roads to the dis- placement of the colored men, are being given the pink slips almost daily. While we do not rejoice at any man’s failure to hold a position, yet it is a source of tnuch gratification to us‘to note that our hotel waiters “have been weighed in the balances and found not wanting.” They have again been placed in positions of re- sponsibility and care and it is de- cidedly up to them to show that when it comes to first class din- ing room service and otherwise, that they can deliver the goods as nobody else can. Owing to pre- sent condition, it is a fact that for along time, the bulk of our peo- ple must serye in the capacity of domestics, hence, whether as cooks or waiters, they must seek and detefmine to give to their employees and patrons the best that may bein them, First class domestic service is far from being common place. It is indeed an art acquired only through prac- tice, diligence and faithfulness to duty. To serve one with neat- ness and dispatch is no ordinary duty to perform. It requires skill and alertness. Our people have shown that they can,be the best domestics ,in the world. Their reputation along this line is already established. Now that we are again beginning t6 be recog- nized as the leaders in the line of domestic service, we should seek to keep this opinion of us by others. This cannot be done by the use of thesame methods of service day in and day out, with- out improvement, but amust be done through the daily work and effort of those among us whose daily vocation places them in the dining rooms and kitchens of our leading hostelries, railroads and private residences. Service, ef- ficient service, should be the guide and watchword of each one of our domestics. Their field is broad and promising. Let them main- tain possession of it for good. It is indeed a source of much pleas- ure for us to note this country wide return to tne colored domes- tic. Itisasit should be. Again, let us urge our peole who are again securing a monopoly of this particular field of activity to act their part well thus making it impossible for them to be displac- ed on account of irefliciency or failure to make good.

In sad but fond remembrance of my daughter and loving sister, Mrs, FLORENCE GLOVER WILSON, who was called from us one year ago today July ah uP in New York ity. Yes, we will meet her some bright morning, ec Resting by the water fair For she’s waiting for our coming, In the upper garden there. But God knew best when he called her, From this sinful world below. But in that teautiful land of joy, We will meet to part no more. - We loveaher; yes no heart can tell, How much we loved her, and how well. Some may think we'll soon forget her And our wounded hearts be healed, But they little know the sorrow That is within our hearts concealed. By her loving mother, sisters and brothers. Mother, Mrs. A.

Lack of care in selecting food—to put it plainly allowing appetite to choose food; allowing passions to run unrestrained, ab- sence of system and regularity when it comes to eating and sleep- ing. These things account for the large number of physical weaklings we have among us, and for the ab- sence of vitality among such a large number of our young. In- fant mortality alarms. Far too many born in Negro homesstretch, gap, kick, and die. A certain socioloyist says the Negro is grow- ing weaker each generation, and that his final passing is only a ques- tion of time.

BW reader of these notes who te a Yevel headed and progressive farmer ofers this criticism agalnust the werk ecrd methods of the so called county agricultural expert—namels, that his efforts are far Jess valuable from the standpoint of the average farmer be- gause most of the experiments he con- @ucts are on so limited and intensive amscale that they cannot be carried out im the same way on a quarter or half section farm. Our friend contends that if this same expert were to take entire ebarge of farm, assuming responsi- ‘bility for the planning of the work gnd for the hundred and one details, some of them often vexutious and an- nosing, and were to make a distinct success of it, an improvement over what the owner is able ta do, he would then be in a position to tell the averazo farmer how to farm. The same thought Is expressed by a Kan- as farmer fn the following language: “I am in favor of progress :ind ad- vandement, but before we fet into the expert business too far 1 am in favor of putting those experts on probation. Give each one 160 acres of Innd, one team, two cows, four sheep, provisions for one year, and, if at the expiration of five years he has. kept out of the poorhouse, paid his taxes, Lent his lodge dues paid and his prearer, let the county in which he {s loc: ted give him a job on the county esseriment Yarn" = THE CELERY BED. “~ The home garden can easily he made to produce all the celery that the fam- Ny needs.

In several sections of western states grasshoppers have done great damage ‘within the past few weeks, and ento- mologists connected ‘with several mid- dle state agricultural colleges have warned farmers of possible damage from the pest in the coming weeks. A spray that is safd to be effective in Killing the grasshoppers is made by mixing one pound of arsenate of lead and two quarts of cheap molasses and diluting in sixty gallons of water. This should be applied to vegetation along roadsides and the edges of fields where the grasshoppers may be abundant. A dope which Kills the grasshoppers when they eat it fs made by mixing one pound of parls green in forty pounds of bran and adding enough wa- ter and molasses to make it a sticky mass. This should be scattered in small quantitles at intervals of three or four rods svherever the hoppers are abundant. Another mixture equal- ly good is made by substituting fresh horse manure in place of bran on the above recipe and adding salt. . TWO RECORD BREAKERS. Professor Rice of the poultry depart- ment of the State College of Agricul- ture at Cornell unlversity, New York, has a couple of hens of which be may well feel proud. One of these, Cornell Supreme, has laid 660 eggs in a period of three years, the highest sustained production of which he has been able to find any authentic record. These eggs welghed 86.19 pounds, or more than twenty-five times the weight of the hen. Another ben, Cornell Sur- prise, has Jald 562 eggs in the three year period, a remarkable feature about ber performance belng that sho laid more eggs each successive year, her score for the three years being 180, 1SG and 196 eggs respectively. Tho performance of these two hens leads their owner to the conclusion that a hen can sustain a high exe production for 2 period of at least three years and that such a breed can be developed by selection which will add greatly to the value of the poultry business of the country, . WHY SOME SUCCEED. Success in most any line of agricul- tural endeavor or in animal or poultry husbandry is rarely due so much to exceptional opportunity or especially favorable environment or to unusual abjlity on the part of the operator as tg the simple traits of persistence, ap- Diication to details and the use of a fair measure of good sense and intel- ligence. Chiefly does it follow sticking to one thing, whatever the drawbacks for the time being may be. Many pco- ple make a fizzle of thelr undertakings by dropping an enterprise Just as they have got through the tiresome and ex- Perience getting stage. They take a new tack and drop it at about the samo stage, and so on. The net result is that they are most of their timo gaining experience at a high price, from which they get little or no benefit. Professor Hayward of the Delaware experiment station reports that a Guernsey -bull; King Beda. gives” a small quantity of milk. While it is 2 matter of common observation that most male mammals have undeveloped mammary glands. It is raré that those glands perform their function.+ ‘The 560,000,000 pounds of veal which Americans consume annually would make 40,000.000,000 pounds of beef if the calves thut are slaughtered were allowed to grow to maturity. More than this, the vastly larger amount of beef is not only more digestible but a s00d deal more nutritious than the smaller amount of veal. While soap, whitewash aid some other things may be applied to the trunks of fruit trees without injury, mixtures containing grease or heavy ells are always injurious. Many = young orchard has been ruined through applying to the bark such greasy mix- tures through the mistaken netten that they check or ward off some fungous or insect pest with which the trees were threatened. Rape sown at the time of the last cultivation of the. corm will give am abundant supply of green stuff for hoz pasturage that will dovetail in alcely if the hogs are turned inte the cora and allowed to hog it down next Octo- ber and November. But, whether the hogging down method fs followed or nof, the rape will give an excellent and much needed pasture after the crop bas been removed. ~Lte, Quite unusual damage to the small branchlets on the Oregon fr has been noticed on the Pacific slope within the past few weeks. This is attributed to the fact that the sap started early in April, the trees being hit shortly after- ward_by a bitter cold snap, accompa- aed by a sharp, portheast wind, The damage seems akin to that which fruit trees often suffer from what is usual Ty called sour sap, eget - Where pasturage is abundant the feeding of a grain ration to mili! cows docs in most cases increase the milk flow somewhat, but the increaso 1s sel- dom justified i view of the cost of the grain fed. However, it has been noted in some experiments conducted by the animal husbandry department of Cornell college, New York, that cows that were given such grain ra- tion gave 1G per cent moro milk after the pasture scason than cows that had pasturage only. Attention has been called in a good many quarters to the fact that most states exact definlto qualifications for the man who would operate a statlon- ary engine, but that Tom, Dick and Harry are allowed to operate engines of from twenty to sixty horsepower on high speed autos, which aro a menace to life and Umb to a degree far ex- ceeding engines of‘the stationary kind. ‘The time is ripe for a change and for insisting on a fair measure of sense and capacity on the part of the person who would run a high power motor vehicle on a public highway. After many experiments and investi- gation into the causes of white diar- thea in chickens the poultry depart- ment of the Storrs Agricultural college Tecommends the feeding of sour milk or buttermilk to the chicks from the time they are ten days old. The acidi- ty of the milk seems to serve as a germicide and to keep the bowels in a healthful condition. Besides this, the food elements which the milk contains, being, as they are, largely protem, aro excellent for the growth and vigor of the young chicks and also a fine ration for the laying hens. If plain sour milk is thus a preventive of this worst of poultry plagues it should be sup- piled to the chicks and hens whenever possible, . wra- atecegarte ‘While there are a few New England orchardists who favor keeping their trees In grass, cutting the grass and using it for a mulch, and while in many ranches in the far west the sys- tem of clean cultivation throughout the season {3 followed, there is much to commend the system pf giving clean cultivation up to the middle of July and then seeding to some leguminous cover crop and plowing this under the folowing spring. ven in sections where the rainfall is Imited and most of it falls from the Ist of October to the Ist of, April the cover crop idea 1s good. In such case, however, the seeding should be made just before the fall rains set ip. The growth made, while not needed as a winter protection, serves to keep the soll from washing and, plowed under In the spring, furnishes a humus that most soils are much in need of. The greatest danger to young apple orchards comes from the inroads of tho borer beetle. ‘The eggs are laid by fhe mature beetle the latter ‘part of ‘May and early June, and the little borers which hatch in 2 few days are soon busy, The point where they enter the bark {s usually indicated by a drop of brown colored sap or, in the case of the borers that are several months or a year old, by brownish, sawdustlike excreta. Washes applied at about the timo the young hatch will destroy many, but the only sure method is to inspect the trunks of the trees just above the ground at intervals during the summer and cnt out and destroy any that are found, Where the borers are old and deep in the treo a pliable twig may be used to prod them in ‘thelr holes where at work. ‘Tho ground ‘for a diameter of two or three feet about the trunk should bo kept free from weeds and grass so that evidence of the’boters can be eanlly detected, Cookery Points Cherry Delights. Cherries served fresh and cold on their own stems for breakfast are so delicious that no other way of serving them at thet meal could pes But pitted and sprinkled with Sugar and a bit-of lemon juice they serve as an ap- petizer and at the same time lose none of their delicate favor. Another way ef preparing them for breakfast is to pit them and mix them with sugar in the proportion of half a cupful to s pint of cherries and cook them until they are just tender. Then pour them over buttered toast. Cherry soup has been made, but it could hardly be mere than the result of an effort to serve cherries in a new and umerpected way. However, at every corse save the soup course cherries can be legitimately served. Cherry cecktaila are made ia this way: Stone ripe cherries, chop them fine, add x tablespoenful of lemon juice te each cupful of cherries, eweeten ‘them to taste and serve them either in cocktall glasses or else in lemon skin cups made by removing part of one side of « suficlent number of lemons, cutting & bit.ot the rind from the other side, removing all the pulp and juice and washing and chilling the shells. Gherrieg perved with French toast ean be used as an entree. To make ‘them cut rings half an inch thick from bread and soak them in beaten egg yolk, milk, 2 little sugar and a pinch of fal Roll the bread rings in crumbed bréad abd macaroons and brown them in butter. Stew ripe cherries with-sug- ar enough to sweeten them, drain and pile'in the middle of a dish. Surround them with the fried bread rings and Berve them with the Juice of the cher- ries thickened with a little cornstarch and flavored with orange juice. Cherry fritters can be served with meat as 4 separate course or-as dessert. To make them prepare a batter of a cupful of flour, a teaspoonful of salt and half a teaspoonful of baking pov- der mixed with a tablespoonful of melted butter, a well beaten egg and enough water to make a thin batter. Stew ripe, pitted cherries until they aro just tender—but do not cook them to pleces—and sweeten them, Drain them and add them to the batter. Drop it in spoonfuls into,deep fat and fry brown. The juice drained from the cherries can be substituted for water to moisten the fritter batter. Sour cherries are needed for cherry sherbet. Stone a quart of them. In the meantime boil together a quart of water and a pound of granulated sugar for fifteen minutes. Add the cherries to the hot sirup just as it is taken from the stove and stand aside until it is perfectly cold. Strain through a fine wire sieve and freeze. When you take out the dasher stir in a meringue made of the white of ono egg sweetened with a tablespoonful of granulated sugar. Pack in ice for an honr or two. Raspberry Tarta Raspberry Tarts—Delicious raspber- ry tarts can be made by cooking paste in patty tins, filling the shells with rice or beans in wared paper to keep the paste from bubbling and filling the shells with fresh raspberries covered with sugar and whipped cream. Raspberry Ice Cream.—This ice cream calls for three pints of raspber- ries, Cover and mix them with a cup- ful of sugar and let them stand for an hour. Mix three pints of cream with a cupfal and a half of sugar and two tablespoonfuls of sherry. Freeze and when stiff take out the dasher. Put the berries and sugar in the cavity where the dasher was and set away in foe and salt for an hour and 2 half. 7 =< Boiled Sweet Apples. Take five nice, ripe, sweet apples, halve and core them, place in a kettle, sprinkle with four teaspoonfuls brown sugar. ‘Add water enough to boll well over the apples. Cover and let them cook until tender and the juice is be- coming thick. Then with a silver fork or spoon lift the bottom pieces, letting the top ones down into the sirup. Cook from twenty to thirty minutes longer, being careful not to burn them. These are much nicer than baked ap- plea ~ Pan Dowdy, Pio crust, apples, twro cupfuls of sug- ar, one teaspoqnful of cinnamon. one cupfol of cider.

Causey and W. D. Kennedy, chairman and secretary. joint committee on district grand lodge No. 18, 28th session; R. L. Lockley, vice chairman; Ed. H. Burke, financial secretary; W. H. Burgess, treasurer; Wiley Smith, special deputy; C. W. Alexander, chairman of transportation, Lymus Washington, chairman of parks; J. D. Powell, auditor; J. C. Lindsay, chairman on place, etc. Greetings: I extend to you, gentlemen, deep and abiding gratitude for electing me to serve the D. G. L. No. 18 of Ga., G. U. O. of O. F., in its 18th session, as master of ceremonies. In the profundity of your great wisdom, however, sense of propriety and belief of the survival of the fittest you selected me, as the result of your highest choice, for the master of ceremonies. Months after this great display of wisdom, sense of propriety, and belief in the survival of the fittest, you again discussed at length the propriety of my holding this very honorable and lucrative position, because, you say, I am a representative of the Ruth, and would, therefore, have to change to another. You have my most profound sympathy in making this awful blunder; that of choosing me, Prof. Jno. McIntosh, delegate from Armour Household, 438, G. U. O. of O. F. to the district grand Household, a representative of the sainted mothers, sisters and daughters of the pioneer Odd Fellows of Georgia; a representative of the justly proud inmates of the Household of Ruth of to day, Christian women, educated, cultured and refined women, many of whom, who have made you men, what you are today for good. I sadly regret to be thus informed by you, which information I am forced to bear to the Households of proud Georgia, that a loyal taxpayer of these great United States, a true Georgian, a native Savannahian and a citizen that stands for something of worth at home and abroad; a former law-maker of Georgia in the palmy days of Republican- ism, an educator of the sons of Ham, and alternate delegate from Protection Lodge, a lodge that has ever been loyal to the divine principles of the order, a delegate from Armour Household No. 438, G. U. O. of O. F., is not eligible to be master of ceremonies of the public session of the D. G. L. No. 18 of Georgia. May I ask you erudite solons; if what you say or what I am in the order renders me ineligible, what do you base your membership in the order upon? For I am safe insaying: my lodges rate me as an honest Odd Fellow, but how do your lodges rate you, Mr. Causey, chairman, or how does Mrs. W. D. Kennedy, or the Globe Shoe Store, rate the secretary, or how does the First A. B. church rate Brother L. A. Washington? My church rates me as honest The Patriarch and the Patriarch Auxiliary, in their recent joint entertainment, at Harris Street hall, rated my conduct as moral and sober. How about deputy Smith's And yet, I am inelligible for master of ceremonies. I have been reliably informed, that the real cause of my ineligibility is plainly this: The professor uses his freedom of speech too freely and will not wire-pull with the boys and get on the fence and trade, setting it up occasionally, and to illustrate their meaning more fully, they quote a portion of my Thanksgiving address at Saint Philip A. M. E. church, Charles street, Savannah, thus spoke the professor they said; "My dear brother Odd Fellows and loving inmates of the Household of Ruth, sweet Juveniles of innocency, remove your gaze of horror from the dark picture of human frailty and joyously with reviving thanksgiving cast your eyes upon yonder canvas of progress of the order in the last few years; see passing before your eyes in magnificent splendor and rejuvenating grandeur 60,000 hearty Odd Fellows; note the $86,000 loaned to the members of the order with which to build homes, buy farms and go into business; note, if you please the $100,000 paid out to the windows and orphans; behold in yonder coffers of the order the increasing valuable titles to $300,000 real estate, and its splendid city property of $200,000; walk with me down Auburn Avenue, Atlanta, and scan with pleasing eyes that whole block between Butler and Bell streets, etc. Come with me to yonder Gate City of the south and stopping at 200 Auburn Avenue, feast your eyes upon that Odd Fellow office building, with its five stories peering into the heights of the etherial region of Atlanta, steadied upon an adamant basement, like unto the one beneath Pizga's heights; pass through its six fine stores, 42 offices and six lodge rooms; view this concrete structure with its interior finish in marble, beautifully white, emblimatic of purity, and then clap your hands for joy and gladness, and thank God for these magnificent acquisitions and valuable assets; yea, thank God for this gem of beauty and utility, the pride of Georgia's structures in architectural beauty and splendor; yea, more, let us thank God for the active spirits of the order, who so grandly and successfully financed and brought into a tangible and visible reality, viz; Hon. B. J. Davis, W. A. Edwards, W. F. Penn, W. T. Gibbons, S. Cunningham, Wm. Driskell, Dr. H. R. Butler, Mr. G. M. Howell, Dr. A. D. Jones, R. E. Pharrow, builder, the Hon H. L. Johnson, attorney. Hear me, brethren, for the good of the order, hear me for the good of the race, hear me for humanity's sake, when with all the profound emphasis of my soul, from the deepest recesses of my heart, I call upon you to stop fighting the men and women of the order who have done something for the good of the order, who will do something for the order, and thereby help the race in its herculean struggles for recognition, and maintenance of true manhood and noble womanhood. Let us as Savannah Odd Fellows, and worthy inmates of the Household of Ruth, ask for, clamor for, pray for and work for some of the good and grand things established here in Savannah, that are established elsewhere, by the brain and brawn, the money and men of this grand old order. Let us ask for some investment here, some paying real estate, some beautiful structure, hall or bank or playhouse or business venture of some kind, that will give employment to our juveniles, yea, to our boys and girls, our men and women. Let us ask for something that will inspire in our breast and others, greater love and support for friendship, love and truth, peace, happiness and prosperity, innocence, hope and virtue.

A solution of water glass mixed with powdered calcium carbonate serves the same purpose. A mixture of boiled linseed oil and fire clay resists acid better than most cements, though sulphur melted with glass powder is also ranked as very resistant to chemicals in general. A good stone cement is made by mixing two parts of magnesium oxide, one part of magnesium chloride, powdered stone to suit as a filler and water to make a stiff paste. Basic magnesium chloride results.-Scientific American. Water Needles. So penetrating is water at high pressure that only special qualities of cast iron will be tight against it.

A housekeeper who prides herself on her excellent management gives the following secret of dusting: She always dips her dusters in paraffin oil after washing them and says it is really astonishing to find how much more effective they are. This is only one of the numerous uses to which she puts kerosene. A kerosene soaked rag removes all of the grease from the kitchen sink and leaves it bright and shining. In the same way her stove is kept clean. In speaking of stoves it is worth mentioning here that vaseline is considered an excellent substitute for blackening for the gas range. After work on the range has been finished for the day a rag greased with vaseline should be rubbed over the range inside and out. If this is done while it is still warm, the gas having been turned off, the effect is most satisfactory. Valuable Laundry Hints. Never put things out of hot starch through rubber wringers. It injures the rollers. A new stiff brush makes the best sprinkler for dampening clothes—better even than a tin salt sprinkler. Before washing lace curtains tack a strip of muslin along their outer edges and let it remain until they are dry, and you will thus avoid the usual trouble of sagging. Rubber rollers may be cleaned by rubbing them with a rag dipped in parrafin. The water in which rice has been boiled may be saved and used to stiffen small articles. This is worth noting by the bachelor girl who does her own cooking and also washes her own muslin collars, etc. These muslin collars, she should also remember, must be thoroughly dried before being put away or they will turn limp again. To these may be added many scraps of valuable information for use in the kitchen. To Clean Oilcloth. Oilcloth may be cleaned and brightened by washing with clear water in which a little borax has been dissolved. Wipe with fannel that has been dipped into milk and wrung as dry as possible, or lukewarm water applied with a scrubbing brush will answer equally well, with a final polish with a woolen cloth wrung out of skim milk. To clean paint provide a plate with some best quality of whiting and have ready some clean warm water and piece of fannel, which dip into the water and squeeze nearly dry; then take as much whiting as will adhere to the painted surface, when a little rubbing will instantly remove any dirt or grease; then wash the part well with clean water, rubbing it dry with a chameis.
